The tech wall is based on openGrid, a free and modular mounting framework that can be used on walls or desks. It has compatibility with the astounding Gridfinity by Zack Freedman making it a truely useful thing to have.

I orginially started this of early in 2026 and printed the plates in PLA. It was great and there were plenty of additions that helped with storing a large amount of cable from the Starlink install. However, the summer heatwave of June 2026 put too much heat into the grid and it started to melt and deform. The 2nd version of this is currently being printed in Bambulabs PETG HF in matte black. Each 8×8 grid takes approx 3.5 hours to print and 20 are needed for the current length of the wall.

The premise of this is to house my homelab, router and have a space to put headphones, bicycle helmet, keys and other stuff out of the way of the floor.
